The connection to the outgoing server “mail.btinternet.com” failed. Additional outgoing mail servers can be configured

You have said you are using webmail, that means you must be using a web browser yet when you are asked to check the server settings you replied that they are OK.

You can not check the server settings in webmail (using a web browser) you can only check/change them using either an email client or email app so can you please clarify which you are using.

Sorry appreciate your attempts to help me but I am confused with the jargon.

The settings must be ok as occasionally an email will send.

Also using Swan cctv which sends emails of detections using my btemail acct - again every few days this will work for a couple of hours then stop again.

i think it must be an outbox capacity related issue, imposed by bt ?
